PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. - A Port St. Lucie police sergeant, who was
responding to 911 calls of a very large snake, located a 12-foot, 120
pound Burmese python in waist-high brush Friday morning.
Residents believe the snake has been eating neighborhood cats.

When fellow officers arrived they were able to safely remove the snake from the brush.
Police placed the python with a person who has a license with Florida Fish and Wildlife to house the snake.
